Chronic subdural hematoma is one of the common central nervous system diseases in middle-aged and elderly people,and the incidence is increasing year by year.Drill and drain surgery is recognized as one of the effective ways to treat chronic subdural hematoma.However,there still exists a non-negligible recurrence after surgery.In addition,with the aging of the population,senior patients may have many underlying diseases.Therefore,the risk of surgery is high and some patients even have contraindications to surgery due to the long-term use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.In recent years,some progress has been made in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma,such as oral atorvastatin can promote the absorption of chronic subdural hematoma,small-dose dexamethasone is used in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma,neuroendoscopy-assisted treatment of segregated chronic subdural hematoma,and middle meningeal artery embolization surgery to reduce the recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma patients.Meanwhile,with the development of imaging,Computed Tomography(CT)and Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI)have made some progress in the diagnosis of chronic subdural hematoma.

Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage(sSAH)is one of the common critical illnesses in neurosurgery,and still has a high rate of death and disability.For these patients,computed tomographic angiography(CTA)or digital subtraction angiography(DSA)should be performed as soon as possible to identify the cause and location of the hemorrhage,and surgery should be performed as soon as possible according to the identified cause.This is particularly important to improve the prognosis of patients.However,some patients have false-negative first-time angiograms for a variety of reasons,such as perimesencephalic subarachnoid hemorrhage,microaneurysms,thrombotic aneurysms,intracranial vascular malformations,spinal vascular malformations,and the experience of the radiologists.Patients with a negative first imaging must be followed up,especially in patients with a high suspicion of aneurysm on CT scanning of the head after onset.The time of the reexamination is recommended to be in the early(<2 weeks)and mid-term(2-8 weeks)stages after the disease,and to increase the vigilance and ability to recognize microvascular lesions,and to improve the ability of first-time detection of the cause with the help of the latest imaging techniques.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of pancreaticoduodenectomy with TRIANGLE operation in the treatment of pancreatic head cancer.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 51 patients with pancreatic head cancer who were admitted to the Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of School of Medicine of University of Electronic Science and Technology of China from January 2017 to July 2018 were collected. There were 33 males and 18 females, aged from 42 to 74 years, with a median age of 56 years. Of the 51 patients, 24 cases undergoing standard pancreaticoduodenectomy, in which No.12, 13 and 17 lymph nodes were dissected, combined with transcatheter arterial infusion chemo-therapy (TAI) were allocated into the standard group, and 27 cases undergoing pancreaticoduo-denectomy with TRIANGLE operation, in which No.7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 16, 17 lymph nodes were dissected, combined with TAI were allocated into the TRIANGLE group, respectively. Observation indicators: (1) intraoperative conditions of the two groups; (2) postoperative conditions of the two groups; (3) follow-up and survival. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination and telephone interview once three months to detect tumor recurrence and metastasis and survival of patients up to July 2021 or the death of patient. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or the Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the rank sum test. Kaplan‐Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate and median survival time and draw survival curve. Log‐Rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Comparison of intraoperative conditions between the two groups. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, cases with intraoperative blood transfusion were (501±61)minutes, (563±278)mL, 4 in the standard group, versus (556±46)minutes, (489±234)mL, 6 in the TRIANGLE group, respectively. There was a significant difference in the operation time between the two groups ( t=3.62, P<0.05) but there was no significant difference in the volume of intraoperative blood loss or cases with intraoperative blood transfusion between the two groups ( t=1.03, χ2=0.25, P>0.05). (2) Comparison of postoperative conditions between the two groups. Of the 51 patients, 30 had 50 times of postoperative complications, including 18 times of grade Ⅰ complications of Clavien-Dindo classification, 29 times of grade Ⅱ complications of Clavien-Dindo classification, 2 times of grade Ⅲa complications of Clavien-Dindo classification, 1 time of grade Ⅲb complications of Clavien-Dindo classification, respectively. Cases with postoperative complications, cases with delayed gastric emptying, cases without or with pancreatic fistula as class A or class B, cases with biliary fistula, cases with bleeding, cases with diarrhea were 15, 4, 13, 7, 4, 4, 2, 2 in the standard group, versus 15, 6, 14, 10, 3, 4, 1, 3 in the TRIANGLE group, respectively. There was no significant difference in cases with postoperative complications, cases with delayed gastric emptying, cases with pancreatic fistula between the two groups ( χ2=0.16, 0.02, Z=-0.04, P>0.05) and there was no significant difference in cases with biliary fistula, cases with bleeding, cases with diarrhea between the two groups ( P>0.05). Cases with complications as Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ, grade Ⅱ, grade Ⅲ were 10, 11, 2 in the standard group, versus 8, 18, 1 in the TRIANGLE group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-0.67, P>0.05). The duration of postoperative hospital stay was (23±8)days in both of the standard group and the TRIANGLE group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=0.31, P>0.05). (3) Follow-up and survival. All the 51 patients were followed-up for 6 to 54 months, with a median follow-up time of 17 months. The postoperative 1-year overall survival rate was 75.0% and 81.5% in the standard group and the TRIANGLE group, respectively. The postoperative 3-year overall survival rate was 12.5% and 22.2% in the standard group and the TRIANGLE group, respectively. The median postoperative survival time was 15.00 months (95% confidence interval as 12.63 to 17.37 months) and 21.00 months (95% confidence interval as 15.91 to 19.62 months) in the standard group and the TRIANGLE group, respectively. There was a significant difference in survival of patients between the two groups ( χ2=4.30, P<0.05). Cases with tumor recurrence during post-operative 1 year and 3 year were 9 and 20 in the standard group, versus 6 and 15 in the TRIANGLE group, respectively. There was no significant difference in cases with tumor recurrence during postoperative 1 year between the two groups ( P>0.05) and there was a significant difference in cases with tumor recurrence during postoperative 3 year between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with standard pancreaticoduodenectomy, pancreaticoduodenectomy with TRIANGLE operation can prolong the median survival time of patients with pancreatic head cancer without increasing surgical related complications.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between postoperative residual pancreatic volume and change of blood glucose levels. Method Eighty?five cases of pancreatic benign and malignant tumor patients with preoperative and postoperative pancreatic CT images and clinical data were included retrospectively. Preoperative and postoperative pancreatic volume in benign patients and malignant patients were measured. Eight five patients were divided into 5 groups according to the resection volume ratio. Blood glucose levels were compared at different resection volume ratios. Correlation analysis of pancreatic resection volume ratio and blood glucose level were conducted in 39 benign patients and 46 malignant patients.ANOVA test, t test and Peason correlation coefficient were used. Result Postoperative benign and malignant group glucose level difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). Preoperative and postoperative malignant group of glucose level difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). Benign postoperative blood glucose between each groups was statistically significant (P<0.05); Malignant postoperative blood glucose between each groups was statistically significant (P<0.05); The volume ratio of benign and malignant tumor resection was positively correlated with postoperative blood glucose level (r values were 0.85 and 0.77, P<0.01). Conclusions There were statistically significant differences in blood glucose levels between pre?operation and post?operation of benign and malignant tumors. Postoperative blood glucose level was correlated with pancreatic resection volume, and postoperative blood glucose level was positively correlated with resection volume ratio.

To study the quantitative detection method of T-wave alternans (TWA), we analyzed the relationship between the graphic mode of Poincare scatter and TWA, and proposed 'horizontal search algorithm' to complete graphic processing. Then, based on the shape of Poincare scatter, we took Axial_ratio as the final index. Through Matlab simulation, Axial_ratio was compared with the results of spectral method (SM) and appropriate threshold value was selected to recognize the TWA. The results showed that Axial_ratio could accurately detect the TWA.

The present paper is to analyze the trend of sinus heart rate RR interphase sequence after a single ventricular premature beat and to compare it with the two parameters, turbulence onset (TO) and turbulence slope (TS). Based on the acquisition of sinus rhythm concussion sample, we in this paper use a piecewise linearization method to extract its linear characteristics, following which we describe shock form with natural language through cloud model. In the process of acquisition, we use the exponential smoothing method to forecast the position where QRS wave may appear to assist QRS wave detection, and use template to judge whether current cardiac is sinus rhythm. And we choose some signals from MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database to detect whether the algorithm is effective in Matlab. The results show that our method can correctly detect the changing trend of sinus heart rate. The proposed method can achieve real-time detection of sinus rhythm shocks, which is simple and easily implemented, so that it is effective as a supplementary method.

Objective To explore the optimal management strategies for unresectable advanced pancreatic head carcinoma without preoperative gastric outlet obstruction(GOO).Methods Clinical data of 441 cases of advanced pancreatic head carcinoma without GOO undergoing surgery from Jan 2001 to Dec 2010 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among the 441 cases of advanced pancreatic head carcinoma without GOO,101 patients received simple Roux-en-Y cholecystojejunostomy (group A),133 patients received simple Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy (group B),83 patients received Roux-en-Y cholecystojejunostomy combined gastrojejunostomy(group C) and the other 124 patients received Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy combined gastrojejunostomy (group D).The postoperative recurrent obstructive jaundice rates were 7.9％ and 6.0％ in group A and C,respectively; the postoperative de novo GOO rates were 8.9％ and 8.3％ in group A and B,respectively; there were no differences in median survivals among the four groups (F =1.933,P =0.123).Conclusions Choledochojejunostomy is effective for the reduction of recurrent obstructive jaundice for advanced pancreatic head carcinoma patients without GOO,combined prophylactic gastrojejunostomy during surgical biliary drainage could decrease the rate of postoperative GO0.Cholecystojejunostomy could be only applied for patients with poor health or when choledochojejunostomy is a taboo.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of insulin on the proliferation and invasion of human pancreatic cancer cells PANC1,and on its HIF-1α,VEGF expression.MethodsPANC1 was pretreated with insulin of different concentrations (0.1,1,10,100 nmol/L).The proliferation of PANC1 was tested by MTTmethod,and transwell assay was used to test the invasion ability of PANC1.HIF-1α,VEGF and PCNA protein expression was assessed by Western blots,and HIF-1α,VEGF mRNA was detected by real-time PCR.Results Insulin could increase the proliferation of PANC1 in a dose-dependent manner (p ＜0.05 ),and increase the expression of HIF-1α,VEGF protein.After 100 nmol/L insulin treatment for4 d,the PCNA protein expression in the insulin group was significantly higher than that in the control group (1.196 ±0.014 vs 1.157 ±0.013,P ＜ 0.05).The cancer cells passed through the chamber in insulin group were much more than that in the control group ( 141.0 ± 2.1 vs 89.0 ± 1.4,P ＜0.05 ).The expression of HIF-1α protein was significantly increased (1.139 ±0.020 vs 0.598 ±0.013,P ＜0.05),while there was no significant change of HIF-1αmRNA expression.Both the expression of VEGF protein and mRNA were significantly increased (1.011 ± 0.023 vs 0.627 ± 0.013 0.970 ± 0.016 vs 0.350 ± 0.01 3,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions High insulin microenvironment could enhance the proliferation and invasion of PANC1 cells by up-regulating the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF.

Objective To investigate the effects of sodium butyrate(NaBT) on proliferation of human pancreatic cancer cell line ASPC-1 and explore the possible mechanism. Methods The methylthiazolyl tetrazolium assay (MTT) method was used to detect cell proliferation and draw a curve. The cell apoptosis and cell cycle were determined with flow cytometry. Western blot was used to study the effect NaBT on the pancreatic cancer cells and explore its mechansim. Real-time PCR was employed to assess the expression levels of p53, p21, bcl-2 and cell cycle regulation gene p21. Results After incubation with different concentrations of NaBT for 24 to 72 h, ASPC-1 cell proliferation was inhibited dramatically. NaBT induced an increase of G0/G1 phase cells and a significant decrease in the ratio of S phase cells. The expression of p21 and bax was up-regulated at protein and mRNA level. The expression of bcl-2 was down-regulated at protein and mRNA level. There was no significant difference in the expression of p53 at protein and mRNA level. Conclusion TSA-induced growth inhibition is associated with a block in the G0/G1 phase and apoptosis, which may occur through down-regulating the expression of apoptosis gene bcl-2 and up-regulating the expression of cell cycle regulation gene p21and pro-apoptotic gene bax.
